Chapter 14

"What did you want to tell me?" Blossom asked as she ripped her hand from my grip.

I took a few deep breaths before turning around to face her, "Look, Red... Blossom, I'm sorry..."

Once again she looked taken back but I just ignored her look and continued, "I guess I was just sick of all the fighting and watching our siblings get along and date,.. I just thought that if we started dating we wouldn't fight as much but I was wrong to jump in that fast. I never took your feelings into consideration and I'm sorry about that. I just want to try, try to be... friends," I had to bite my lip to keep from heaving my breakfast, I just need to keep in mind that it's for the bet, "We may not really see eye to eye right now but I feel like if we truly try we might just be able to, it's going to take time, I know that and I'm willing to put in the extra effort. I promise that this isn't some kind of prank, I swear on it..." I let out, biting my lip as she stared at me in silence.

She sighed, "I need to think about this..." With that she disappeared, running out the auditorium doors. Hopefully I didn't just screw everything up....

Days turned into about two weeks, currently being November third, since I told Blossom about us just being friends. It was like she was doing everything in her power to just avoid me. I'd catch a glimpse of her in the hall or parking lot before she'd completely disappear, their was only a few classes that she couldn't escape me from but it didn't mean she couldn't ignore me. Except for art, she had to interact with me but she made sure to keep that only about our art project. It was starting to annoy me, the more days passed the less chance I had winning this bet! I had to win this bet, I'd do whatever it took! Brick Jojo never loses a bet!

I planned to just confront her, but where she couldn't run away. There was only one place where I could think that plan would work. It's not like I haven't been in there before but those times were just for hook ups. Oi, so many memories inside there.... SNAP OUT OF IT BRICK! GET IN THE GAME!

I took a few deep breaths before, walking in the girls locker room. Robin gave me a little extra help, making Blossom the last one out of the locker room. But of course that costed me, but payment was easy; we just maked out in the janitors closet for about fifteen minutes. She was pretty good, I was going to have to call her again.

I cleared all thoughts about making out with Robin from my head before making my way towards Blossom. Her back was facing me and she was muttering under her breath. I got really close to her, my lips just centimeters from her ear. "Boo!" I whispered loudly in her ear but I wasn't expecting her reaction.

She jumped with a light scream but then elbowed me before turning around and shoving me to the ground. I groaned before glaring up at her, "Quick on your feet, aren't you, Red." I breathed out.

She gasped, kneeling down, "Brick, oh my goodness! I'm so sorry! Are- are you okay?" She asked, slowly helping me up, oddly seeming genuinely concerned.

"I'm fine, Red, calm down, you're not that strong!" I replied, without thinking. Crap I just screwed up, she's going to hit me and never talk to me, I'm going to loose this bet!

She just scoffed, "Strong enough to knock you on your behind!"

"Behind? Really?" She wasn't freaking out like Buttercup would have... It was weird... It was different...

"Yes behind, I have every right to say what I want, and if I don't want to let swear words escape my lips then I won't." She pressed before realization hit her, she started poking my chest and backed me up into a locker, "What are you doing in the girls locker room, anyways?"

"I wanted to talk to you, without any intrusions." I explained, taking her hand off of my chest and cupping it with both of my own.

She sucked in air, blushing lightly at the contact, "Talk about what, Brick?"

"Our talk we had two weeks ago, I need an answer Blossom, you can't keep leaving me hanging with barely any hope..." I said staring deeply into her eyes, acting like I was looking for something. I should join drama class because my acting skills are on point!

She let out the breath of air she was holding in, breaking eye contact to stare at our connected hands, "Brick... I just-"

"HEY! WHAT IS GOING ON IN HERE?!" A voice yelled making us both look up. The girls P.E coach, perfect.

We both looked back at each other, we weren't in the best position. My back was pressed against the locker while Blossom was practically pressed up against me, the only space between us was caused by our connected hands.

"WHO'S BACK THERE?!" She yelled.

That means she hasn't seen either of us yet, we still had a chance. I quickly pulled away, putting my pointer finger to my lips. She nodded and I grabbed her hand, intertwining them before pulling her around lockers. I led her to the back of the locker room, bringing us in front of the equipment closet.

"Bobby pin, I need one." I whispered to her. She started, digging through her hair, feeling for a bobby pin.

"I CAN HEAR YOU, NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO BE IN THE LOCKER ROOM AFTER HOURS! WHEN I FIND YOU, YOU'RE IN BIG TROUBLE!" She yelled, starting to make her way up and down the rows of lockers.

"Hurry up!" I whispered before she sighed in relief pulling one out and handing it to me.

I took it before breaking it in half and started working on the door knob. Jiggling both ends around till I heard a click. I smirked before opening the door and pulling Blossom inside, I closed the door and it clicked automatically locking us back in.

I connected our hands once again before leading her to the back to another door. I opened it, it was never locked, coach didn't really care. It led us into the boys locker room which was currently empty except for the snoring coming from coaches office. I closed the door quietly before we floated to the exit. When we hit the door, we opened it and booked it outside. Their was no camera's because this school was to cheap but that just worked out better for us.

When we were off school grounds we stopped running, out of breath we both smiled at each other before we started laughing. Maybe this bet might just work in my favor...
